Dear List,

I did some google searches and I discovered a speed writing system which should work with the BN. It's called "EasyScript, if you're writing by hand, and ComputerScript, if you're using a PC. It's designed for the sighted, but the system is based on letters of the alphabet, not graphics. I have done some experiments, and I have found you can use a BT or QT entry. If you use a BT keyboard, you will have to translate your notes into text. Once that's done, you could copy your notes onto a PC and the ComputerScript software will translate your notes into longhand.

I don't know if the software is screen-reader friendly but the system sounds like something many of you could find useful.

If you want more information about ComputerScript or EasyScript, let me know privately and I'll email it to you in html attachments.

The disadvantage of this system is you must turn off speech when you are writing so people with /voiceNotes might not be able to use it without going nuts.

I don't know if the course material for learning this system is accessible to us, but I understand the basics.

I do think you might need to make some adaptations for braille, but I can discuss those privately with anyone who's interested.

BTW, if your BN is in the shop, you can use ComputerScript by manually typing it on your PC. You can also use EasyScript with a brailler or slate and stylus.
